Measurement Technology 朱晓青 湖南工业大学电气与信息工程学院 Chapter 5 Mechanical Sensors Chapter 5. Mechanical Sensors 5.6 Flow Sensors The measurement and control flow can be said to be the very heart of process industries. Chapter 5. Mechanical Sensors We can consider flow on three broad fronts: Solid Liquid Gas We can also consider flow as: Gross volume flow rate Mass flow rate Chapter 5. Mechanical Sensors 5.6.1 Solid-Flow Measurement (1) Conveyor Flow Concepts Chapter 5. Mechanical Sensors Chapter 5. Mechanical Sensors (2) Flow Sensor The flow sensor is actually the assembly of conveyor, hopper opening, weighing platform, load cell, and speed sensor. Chapter 5. Mechanical Sensors Chapter 5. Mechanical Sensors Chapter 5. Mechanical Sensors Another popular device for weigh measuring of moving systems is an LVDT that measures the droop of the conveyor at the point of measurement. Chapter 5. Mechanical Sensors Chapter 5. Mechanical Sensors Example : A coal conveyor system moves at 100ft/min. A weighing platform is 5.0 ft in length, and a particular weighing shows that 75 lb of coal are on the platform. Find the coal delivery in lb/h. Chapter 5. Mechanical Sensors 5.6.2 Liquid Flow The measurement of liquid flow is involved in nearly every facet of the process industry. There are great many type of flow measurement methods. In many experimental studies of fluid flow phenomena, it is necessary to determine the magnitude and/or direction of the flow-velocity at a point in the fluid and how this varies from point to point. Chapter 5. Mechanical Sensors (1) Flow Units Volume flow rate Flow velocity Mass or weight flow rate Chapter 5. Mechanical Sensors Example : Water is pumped through a 1.5in diameter pipe with a flow velocity of 2.5ft/s. Find the volume flow rate and weight flow rate. The weight density is 62.4lb/ft3. Chapter 5. Mechanical Sensors (2) Pipe Flow Principles The flow rate of liquids in pipes is determi
